Motivation Monday

Even if you had a horrible week last week, at school, work, what-have-you, it is important to get up and get back on the horse! The worst thing you can do is quit and run in the other direction. People will always respect you for trying again. The only time you’re held to your mistakes and failures is when you run away from them. Today I challenge you to let your past mistakes go and trudge forward, full force! And even if you don’t feel like a winner just yet, keep going back and keep trying. All your perseverance will,…

Motivation Monday!

In each stage of my life thus far, I’ve learned to take things less and less personal. First, it was in elementary school, I learned not to take it personal if someone didn’t want to be my friend. In high school, I learned not to take it personal, if a teacher or coach got upset with my class or team. Today, I continue to learn not to take it personal, if someone doesn’t want to collaborate with me or join my team at work. It’s a beautiful thing when you realize it’s not always about you. I don’t think I…

Keeping Your Head Attached

Sometimes in life you find a necklace that legitimately keeps your head on your shoulders. Today I’m going to share said necklace with you. Lets take a look.. Jacket: All Saints | Pants: Keepsake | Shoes: Forever 21 | Necklace: Mirina Collections You’ll be seeing a lot of this necklace on me, the details are amazing and it adds necessary edge to any look. I paired it with a leather biker jacket and high wasted pants. I love that it’s such a large necklace because it covers most of my chest which allows me to show more skin without really…

Motivation Monday! What is your “big dream”?

Good morning everyone! Happy Labor Day if you’re here in the US! If not, here’s your motivation Monday post.. Growing up I never said I want to be a doctor, police officer, lawyer, veterinarian or anything for that matter. I never had a clue but always knew that I wanted to do something that made a difference. Something that impacted others. My blog is somewhere I could do that, so that’s why I do motivation Monday. I love clothing and fashion, but sometimes I think it’s nice to read something genuinely positive that will hopefully help start your week off…

Apple of my eye

SO this title is actually both literal and figurative. In the literal sense, my boyfriend kindly bought these Louboutins for me this past Christmas, which was overly generous (we usually don’t do crazy gifts). Figuratively, apples are red and so is my pop of color LOL (I’m totally laughing as I right this right now because I can’t even deal with myself). I’ll stop the babbling so we can take a look at this outfit that I’ve already gone way too in detail about.. SOS girlfriend CANNOT walk in these shoes. Whoops, I guess I should stick to 100mm heels. Whatever. Jumpsuit:…

Laced Up

Hello and happy July everyone!! Can you believe it’s July?! I could get dramatic about the Summer feeling half over but I won’t, instead lets talk fashion. So, tell me about of pair of lace up shoes that I don’t have to have (fyi there are none, I want them ALL). Unfortunately (or fortunately) my budget doesn’t allow for that, so I try to deiced (yes me making a decision is a joke in itself #libraprobs) on the best/my favorite lace up styles to purchase. I would love to get the Aquazzura lace up flats, but it’s not a logical…
